An image processing device includes: a measuring unit that measures a light quantity; an identification unit that identifies a region within an image-capturing range using the measured light quantity, the region having a light quantity higher than or equal to a predetermined light quantity; a setting unit that sets an image-capturing angle so that the identified region is out of the image-capturing range; and an image-capturing unit that captures an image for authentication at the image-capturing angle set by the setting unit.

Image processing device

An image processing apparatus includes a detector and a change unit. The detector detects a standing-up motion of a person after receipt of a print instruction. The change unit changes from a low-power consumption mode to a printing mode in response to detection of the standing-up motion, the printing mode being a ready-to-print mode.

An operation guide apparatus includes a display and a processor. The display displays, on a display screen, operation guide information for providing a guide on an operation for continuously using a device. The processor performs processing to enable an operator who is doing the operation with such a posture that the operator is unable to see the operation guide information displayed on the display screen to recognize the operation guide information.

An image forming apparatus includes an image display that displays an image. In response to determining both that the image display is present in a detected user's gaze direction and that a distance between the user and the image display is shorter than a predetermined distance, the apparatus performs a change process on the image. After performing the change process, the apparatus determines whether or not the distance between the user and the image display is equal to or greater than the predetermined distance, and if so, returns the image back to a state prior to the change process.

An information processing apparatus includes a controller that controls the information processing apparatus to shift from a first state concerning electric power consumption to a second state in which electric power consumption is smaller than the electric power consumption in the first state; and a gaze detection unit that detects a gaze toward the information processing apparatus. The controller controls the information processing apparatus to shift from the first state to the second state in a case where the gaze detection unit has not detected a gaze toward the information processing apparatus.

An image display apparatus includes an image display, a receiving unit, a detection section, and a change processing section. The image display displays an image. The receiving unit receives an operation performed by a user on information displayed on the image display. The detection section detects a user's finger approaching the receiving unit or an operation performed by the user on the receiving unit. The change processing section performs a change process on the image displayed on the image display, and stops or does not perform the change process when the detection section detects the approaching or the operation.

An information processing apparatus includes a controller that controls the information processing apparatus by making a transition of a state of the information processing apparatus in relation to power consumption of the information processing apparatus from a first state to a second state in which the power consumption is higher than that in the first state, and a line-of-sight detector that detects a line of sight toward the information processing apparatus. The controller makes a transition from the first state to the second state when the line-of-sight detector detects a line of sight toward the information processing apparatus.

There is provided an information processing apparatus. A determination unit determines whether an object is present in a predetermined place. A specification unit specifies a direction of a toe of a user who uses the information processing apparatus. A notification unit performs a notification to the user in a case where a predetermined direction of the toe is specified and it is determined that the object is present in the place.

Information processing apparatus

A control device is provided and includes: an acquisition unit that acquires the number of persons from a count unit, the count unit counting up the number of persons in an area based on a detection result of a first detection unit, the first detection unit detecting a person who goes in and out through an entrance of the area; and an operation mode control unit that controls an operation mode of a processing device according to the acquired number of persons.

Control device, processing device, control method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

An information processing apparatus is provided with a specifying unit, an output control unit, and an event detecting unit. The specifying unit specifies an operator who inputs an output request for outputting an output object. The output control unit controls an output process in accordance with the output request. The event detecting unit detects an event having a possibility that the operator stops immediate output of the output request. Even in a case where the output control unit is instructed from the operator to perform an immediate output process of the output request when the operator is specified and where the operator is specified, the output control unit stops the immediate output process of the output request in a case where the event detecting unit detects the event.

An image capturing apparatus includes an input unit, a detecting unit, and a controller. The input unit continuously inputs a signal sequence. The signal sequence includes values of multiple pixels and control information. The pixels constitute an image. The control information is embedded at multiple positions according to a rule. The detecting unit detects occurrence of an error on the basis of the inputted control information. The controller interrupts the input performed by the input unit when the detected error is based on the control information embedded in a first region of the image, and continues the input when the detected error is based on the control information embedded in a second region.

Image capturing apparatus and image capturing method

An authentication apparatus includes a feature acquiring unit that acquires a feature of an authentication target; an extracting unit that extracts one or more registered persons having features similar to the acquired feature; a determining unit that determines whether any registered person having a feature similar to the feature of at least one extracted registered person exits in the registered persons; a first identifying unit that, if the determination is negative, identifies the registered person having the feature having a highest degree of similarity with the acquired feature as the authentication target; a specific information accepting unit that accepts information specific to the authentication target; and a second identifying unit that, if the determination is affirmative and the accepted specific information coincides with the information specific to any extracted registered person, identifies the registered person having the coinciding specific information as the authentication target.
